Answer:

A. much of the variation in individuals of a population is heritable

Explanation:

Charles Darwin is a scientist well known for his development of the concept of evolution. Darwin was able to deduce that the species of a population have a common ancestor and that as time passes there is a modification in the characteristics of these species that makes it easier for them to adapt to their environments. These traits that were inherited from past descendants, were helpful traits that made it possible for their own descendants to be able to survive better than their peers. He noted that there were limited resources for survival, therefore it was a case of the survival of the fittest.

Natural selection was the term used by him to describe how species of a population survived over time. Members of a population had varied traits that enabled them to survive. For example, the descendants of an ancestor could have slightly different shapes, colors, sizes, and other features but still maintain traceable heritable traits.

Why do we have different time zones
swat32

As Earth rotates, different parts of Earth receive sunlight or darkness, giving us day and night. Since different parts of Earth enter and exit daylight at different times, we need different time zones. In the late 1800s, a group of scientists figured out a way to divide the world into different time zones.

Answer:

Since, the original DNA sequence has not been provided, the mutation can be an insertion/deletion or a frameshift mutation.

  1. Mutated DNA
  2. Frameshift mutation/ insertion or deletion
  3. All the amino acids  changed after the  point mutation​

Explanation:

Frameshift Mutation:

  • A frameshift mutation is the alteration in the reading frame of the DNA due to the addition/deletion of one or two nucleotides.
  • This type of mutation moves the mRNA sequence one or two bases forwards or backwards which disrupts the three base codons sequence required for translation into proteins.
  • The CT at the end of the sequence is indicative of a frameshift in the DNA reading frame.
  • Frameshift mutation affect all amino acids in a polypeptide chain as all codons are moved one or two steps forwards or backwards.
